/\ Actually WVA hasn't beaten anyone. The only good team they have played was UofL and they lost.

Who has U of L played that was so good?

 

West Virginia

I'm as big an SEC supporter there is, but it's nowhere near as good as it usually is this year, IMO. Here's how I'd rank the conferences...

 

1) Pac-10

2) SEC

3) Big Ten

4) Big 12

5) Big East

6) ACC

 

But, before anyone jumps on my opinion, let me say this. I really think you're splitting hairs when comparing the top three. I think there is a little gap from 3 to 4 and then I would rank the Big 12 and Big East pretty close. The ACC is easily at the bottom this year.

 

The Big Ten is definitely stronger at the top with Michigan and OSU, but after that, I think the SEC and Pac-10 are much better through the rest of the conference. Both the Pac-10 and the SEC have pretty good depth, but I give the Pac-10 the edge because I think SC makes it a little stronger at the top. It's just a matter of opinion and that's mine. I'm sure most people on here are going to argue that the Big Ten or SEC is the best and that's fine. Like I said, the top three are very close, IMO.

I don't think you can name a best this year. All have plenty of strengths, and all have more weaknesses than normal...

That's about the way I see it...although I do rank the Pac-10, Big Ten and SEC a bit above the rest.

Other then tOSU and Michigan I am not buying the Big Ten. Like I said earlier other then those two schools they do not have one single win over a top 25 team.

Pac 10? I just dont see it. Cal has been overrated all year long. Just because teams play USC close doesnt make them that great IMO. Plus the SEC, defensively is a whole lot better. I know it isnt flashy, but good defenses is very important.

They have just as good an argument as the SEC...better, IMO. That's why I rated them #1.

 

But, I said before, I think they're close. If you think the SEC is better, that's fine...just don't knock the Pac-10 and tout the SEC...you don't have a leg to stand on there.

Who has U of L played that was so good?
Louisville whooped Kansas State, who beat Texas.

 

I don't want to hear about Colt McCoy's injury, either;

 

A) It's not why they lost the game and

 

B) Louisville played the entire game with their backup QB, who while I think is progressing nicely, was not an all-world Elite 11 QB prospect like Texas' backup.

 

In any case, Louisville also beat Kentucky... last I checked, UK was the hottest thing since sliced bread around here. Last week, everyone was talking up where UK was rated by the BCS formulas and computer rankings.

If UL's claim rests on beating KState & UK, you should now know why the Big East gets such little respect nationally.

QB highschool rankings mean nothing. UL's backup QB Cantwell has played a lot with Brohm's injuries and is a good QB. Texas' backup QBs hadnt seen the field. Honestly. Texas isnt that great, and I love Texas. But their defense isnt very good this year. Also K State has a freshman QB who Im sure is a lot better now than he was when he played UL.

^ Still an impressive W for the CARDS>
